Spas offer all sorts of ways to relax with soothing heat – sauna, Jacuzzi, steam bath, hot stone massage. But the most popular therapy in the Maldives is outside any spa – the sun.
One & Only Reethi Rah has actually created a special spa just to cater to “sun treatments” Its beach-side Sun Spa provides a daily “sun conditions” board to inform sunbathers (see above). They offer a range of Esthederm skin treatments to prime and protect the skin. They even have a “Tanning Butler” describes by the Sunday Times Travel section in its piece “Good morning Madam, your tanning butler awaits”…
“Tanning Butler” (no, not “Tanned Butler”). “use state-of-the-art technology to calculate the safe tanning potential of a guest’s face and body, then come up with a bespoke suncare programme. The butler applies the necessary creams to the guest first thing in the morning and reappears throughout the day to reapply. Price: £126 per day.”
